"You, leave!" Right now, she was not in a hurry. The most important thing right now was to think of a way to make this damned girl unable to deal with Old Princess Soong. Only by doing this could he call her a liar.
Subconsciously, he already felt that Dongfang Ning would be able to cure Old Princess Soong's sickness, so he decided that as long as Dongfang Ning could not cure Old Princess Soong, then the genius doctor whose Liu Family was spread everywhere would become his weakness as well. At that time, he would no longer be afraid of the Liu Family and not join the team with him.
Dongfang Ning was busy working on a pile of parts in the room, which was the part of the boiler she asked Mei Er to make according to her blueprints and other machinery used to refine medicine. In order to prevent suspicion, she only had one part per blacksmith shop, and because her requirements were too precise, she couldn't make the slightest mistake, so several blacksmiths worked day and night to find what she wanted.
barely workable... According to the Intelligent Brain, there was hundreds of square meters of space at the bottom of the mountain behind Yan Wuzhan's home. As long as she dug out the soil at the bottom of the mountain, she would be able to transport all of these machines into the secret medicine …
"Mistress wishes to see you!" Xue'er announced softly from outside the door.
"Alright, I'll come out!" Dongfang Ning covered all the parts with a piece of cloth and walked out of her room. These things couldn't be seen by anyone, not even by family, because the more they knew, the worse it would be for them. It would only bring them trouble.
Why did Madam Wang come to find her at night when she wasn't sleeping?
"Mom, why are you here?" Seeing Madam Wang pacing back and forth with a worried expression, Dongfang Ning quickly went up to her.
She had been very busy recently and hadn't been with her family for a few days. Had something happened?
"Ning'er!"
Madam Wang looked at the person who was as tall as she was, and her heart was filled with all sorts of emotions. She had grown up, and something that she should worry about was about to happen.
"What's going on?"
This mother of hers was always weighed down by matters of the heart in front of her. Could it be that she wasn't outstanding enough to make her feel at ease?
"Ning'er, come here. Mother wants to have a conversation with you." Madam Wang pulled Dongfang Ning's hand and walked towards the table.
Dongfang Ning let her pull him to the table and poured them both a cup of tea. She looked at Madam Wang, who was deep in thought, and waited for her to speak.
"Ning'er, mother knows that you're going to do something big, but you're still young, so you must know that you can't rush forward in everything. Do you know that there's a saying that has stirred up great waves in the world?"
Dongfang Ning thought about what she had done these past few days and felt that there was nothing wrong with it. Although this body was only 14 years old, but the soul within her was already 28 years old.
"Oh my daughter, the imperial city is full of powerful people. The matter of Liu Family lending you leg injuries is spread everywhere. They are putting you in a high position, and everything you do is no small matter …
Have you thought about the consequences?
If the other families had a favor to ask of you, they would not do anything to you. But after that, with your straightforward character, you don't even know how to offend people.
We're just a commoner... If the people above misunderstand, and the people do not fight with the officials, then it will not matter how big a day it is. "
Madam Wang spoke in a very obscure tone, but Dongfang Ning understood.
"Mother only wants to bring you and Yi'er to a quiet place and live a peaceful life. Next year, when you reach your prime and find a good husband, that is mother's wish. You still have time to stop right now!"
She didn't know whether she could make Dongfang Ning stop or not. In fact, the responsibility that Dongfang Ning had to face was too great. She really didn't want her child to enter into a struggle for power.
"Mother, don't be afraid. I was thinking the same thing. I just wanted to have a peaceful family, but now that the treatment has attracted so much attention, if I can cure it, you can rest assured!"
Dongfang Ning thought Madam Wang was worried that she wouldn't be able to cure the old wangfei's illness, and what she said made sense. It was her own intention to be plain and indifferent, wasn't it?
"You only know how to cure the old wangfei's illness, but you don't know that if you cure it, you'll face jealousy and resentment … And they're all people we can't afford to mess with, you know? "
"Let's go after treating the old wangfei's illness. It's just a sickness, who knows who might be in its way or who might be in its way. The water in the capital is so deep that you can't imagine it …"
"..." Dongfang Ning remained silent for a while before replying.
"Mother, I'll listen to you. Once the old wangfei's illness is cured, we'll live in seclusion in the mountains!"
Seeing that Madam Wang was so uneasy, Dongfang Ning decided to listen to her. There was nothing bad about living in seclusion with a normal family. She wanted to eat all kinds of vegetables, raise flowers, and fish … Free to enjoy life in the mountains, rivers, and clouds.
Yes, for the sake of money, he could not allow himself to be caught up in the struggles of the powerful nobles.
Why did he agree to enter the capital at that time?
He had the Intelligent Brain on him, so why would he be afraid of someone from the Hui Long Town calling him a demon?
"It's all that damn man's fault!" She secretly cursed at someone in her heart, but she was also wrong not to think about it. She could have been low-key when she entered the city, but she chose to take a high-profile path because of the Intelligent Brain in her hands …
"It's too late. Mother, quickly go back to your room and sleep!"
After Madam Wang left, Dongfang Ning once again fell into deep thought. It was still too late to stop. With her abilities, it wouldn't be difficult for her to live in seclusion … "He was almost immersed in the mundane affairs of the mortal world. Her mother reminded him very well!
Thinking back to when he stopped the bleeding on Third Young Master Liu's body, it was because his Liu Family did not release him from his anger towards the common people. Later on, in order to protect himself, he healed his legs … Then, an imperial physician died because of her, so the destruction of the village definitely wasn't a natural disaster. She understood this very well.
In order to protect herself, she had even recruited a bunch of market people. Intelligent Brain was not omnipotent, and on that day at the Ru Yi Pavilion, if not for Yan Wuzhan protecting her from the shadows, where would there be a family of united people now? Even if she could leave safely, the family would not be able to stand firmly in the city.
Now that they had angered Cen Family, they were not ordinary people. The matter of Ru Yi Pavilion winning the money, others definitely already knew that it was because of her. Now, he didn't know how to take revenge on himself. His original intention was to be safe. He could completely hide and do what he wanted to provide medicine for Battle King. However, now:
Cen Family, Liu Family, Wei Family, Battle King, Huangfu Family, Soong Family, which family wasn't a noble family with power and influence?
Who knew what kind of scheming and scheming these people were in the dark, and what kind of complicated relationships they had?
